– Strengthen relationships between school and family
– Enrich student learning and engagement through traditional teachings, supports, and opportunities
– Support a successful transition to high school

ENGAP and the Three Sisters

Posted on by Jeremiah Sharpe

ENGAP works to encourage pre-university students to enagage in the sciences. Their metrics of success are not quantified just on graduation rates.

The Engineering Access Program (ENGAP) offers assistance for Indigenous persons engaged in university studies in Engineering. ENGAP offers an array of academic, social, and personal to meet the needs of its students. ENGAP has also expanded its mandate to include publication of a series of books focused on various forms of Indigenous technologies, intended to increase its outreach.
